Make a scripture advent candle by painting little dots of paint representing each day in Dec. on an inexpensive taper candle. Each night at the dinner table or before bedtime or morning scriptures, etc. read a scripture from one of the standard works fortelling the birth of Christ. It is easy to make a list of scriptures and very touching to read of Christ's birth and mission from the various books of Scripture. Burn the candle while you read the verse and blow it out when it burns down to the next dot.
